THREE MONTHS LATER “Three months after her burial and sometimes, I think I see her in my room.” Michael's hand gripped the bottle of wine firmly as he poured it into a glass. “I'm really impressed how you've treated yourself all this while bro. You really took it easy on yourself.”“I loved her so much and had plans for our future. But life had other plans. There's still a long life ahead, Mc. I know that. And thanks for being there for me always. You're the best friend in the world. No cap!”“I'll never leave your side man, you never left me all those years we had nothing, you were there for me. Sometimes I would get in trouble and you always fought for me. Got wounded for me and still stood your ground. Michael, I love you man. You're the real best man right here.”“Best man. Talking about the best man, what are you saying about marriage? You're not tired of being called a boyfriend yet? Ha ha.”“I almost asked Miriam to marry me yesterday.”“Oh man but what happened? Why didn't y
The day finally came, the day they've all been waiting for. The day the city couldn't wait to witness. The day that Mc Ethan, the young billionaire who went from trash to glory would get married to Miriam, the one woman who had given him a reason to become a husband. Their story had been all over the news since videos of Mc proposing spread all over the Internet. “Oh they are so cute together, they'll make a great couple.” A lot of people said. “I heard he married before but the wife didn't love him because he was poor. Now look at him, standing there in the most expensive suit I've ever seen physically. Damn! Oh dear lord forgive me for cursing in church.” A chubby lady said at the back of the church. The grand ballroom sparkled with opulence, chandeliers casting a warm glow over the well-dressed attendees. Mc, nerves and excitement palpable, stood at the altar in his sleek black tuxedo, eagerly awaiting the entrance of the girl he would spend the rest of his life with. Beside him
"Mellisa, we want nothing but the best for you. You are our world and at this point, it's best to divorce that good for nothing husband of yours." Paula, the 46 year old mother said to her daughter who sat in between her parents with her sweaty palms rubbing against each other repeatedly."It's obvious that he has nothing to offer you Mellisa, letting him marry you was a mistake and we are sorry about that." Gabriel said putting his hand gently on her daughter's shoulders.Paula stood up with her forehead squeezing a little, she was not happy with her husband admitting that they made a mistake, she has always believed she is the smart one and never made mistakes and yes, she was known for her assumption of being perfect. "A mistake? I didn't make a mistake Gabriel, you did!" Her voice raised with anger. "Please mum, dad you guys don't have to do this now." The young voice of Melissa pleaded, she didn't want this to turn into one of their many argument sessions which had become part
Lies! Mellisa wasn't going to spend the weekend at her friend's place as she told her husband, she went to meet her secret lover Jeremy, a coworker at the bank."I've been lying to my husband for so long Jeremy, I don't think I can keep hiding this from him, it'll be worse if he found out by himself." Her head was resting on his broad chest as they lay in bed with her pretty small hands running around the hair on his body. It reminded them of their high school days. They had an affair in their final year, graduated from Rinxel High but never got to meet again until they started working in the same bank. "You know all I can think about right now?" Jeremy's voice was deep and seductive as always."Don't tell me about the night you took my virginity." Her smile was bright like the stars at night. Of course it was something they would forever remember, they were so young and shy. But for some reason, Jeremy had the courage to take things to another level that night at a friend's birthday
The weather was cold but the breeze in the Ethan house was completely different, it was freezing and the morning was the worst one in the married life of Mc and Melissa. They've had a lot of misunderstandings and arguments about a thousand things, they never thought a morning will begin with Melissa slowly folding her clothes neatly in her bag to leave her marriage and head back to her fathers home.The environment was so quiet that one could hear the thoughts from both minds in the room. "I won't regret leaving you anyway," a quick thought flew through Mellisa's mind and she almost said it out loud because she really wanted to leave that house making it clear that she always had plans to vanish and not just because she was caught cheating."You really hurt me, Mellisa." His calm voice could melt a block of regrets but she tried to maintain her harsh approach, it was all she could do to avoid bringing up that soft face of hers and letting those tears of shame fall down from her eyes.
Mc woke up with a heavy head and a completely weak body. He had been drinking alot and trying to forget about the heartbreaking incident of Melissa and Jeremy. It wasn't hard to believe that Melissa cheated on him but it still wasn't a good experience. "This girl loves money, she can't stay with you at your lowest!" the voice of Michael played in his head again, his best friend warned him about marrying Melissa but he didn't listen and now he ended up as a husband who never enjoyed the love of his wife but rather got the worst treatment and unfaithfulness. He struggled to find his way to the bathroom with his blurry vision and dizziness but before he could reach there, his phone started ringing and he struggled back to get it. "Yeah?" he uttered with his phone firmly placed on his right ear before the strange voice came over the phone "Am I speaking to Mc Ethan?" "Ye... Yeah." He managed to say after contemplating for a while. "Oh thank God, my search is finally over!" The person
They were fast! They had guns and their faces were covered with ski masks as they broke into Jeremy's newly rented house. He ran away to Ohio and got a nice new place to live peacefully away from all the women he had broken their hearts but one of them found her way to him after hiring a bunch of men to eliminate him, and there they were after breaking the door into the living room and now the bedroom where he locked himself in, praying for a miracle. Bang! Bang! Bang! And the door opened as three hefty men in black entered the room. Jeremy was already on his knees with his hands in the air shivering uncontrollably. "Please, don't kill me, I'll give you whatever you want I promise!" He drew backwards on his knees as one of the men moved closer. "What is your name?" A deep voice came behind that thick black mask and Jeremy shivered the more as he answered "Je... Jeremy." "You're the playboy who's been breaking a lot of hearts, well we're sorry boy your time for fun is over. You brok
The death of Jeremy was on the lips of everyone as they went on with their day-to-day lives. Winxter Bank moaned about the death of their worker, Jeremy, and Melissa was nowhere to be found for over two weeks. As the investigation of Jeremy's murder got deeper, fingers pointed at her and she made a decision without telling anyone, not even her parents. She ran away just as Jeremy did after giving her and her entire family an STI, breaking her heart and her mother's, but what about her? She ran because she knew the evidence was completely against her, all eyes were on her as everyone believed she sent that text and was behind the murder. "Before being killed, the young banker received an SMS from someone he broke their heart, someone who trusted him and gave him their heart, the person threatened to kill him." Mellisa heard a stranger speaking to another by the roadside as she walked back to the hotel room she'd been staying in for the past weeks. She had on some tight jeans which sho
